Lyrics:
What's there to say, there's not much to talk about
And whatever happened to all of the love that we vowed
Yes, it's true
And there's nothing new
You can say
Give me the reason to want you back
Why should I love you again
Do you know, tell me how
How to forgive and forget
Luther Vandross was a musical master whose style has influenced an entire generation of today's vocalists. His distinctive brand of satin smooth vocal magic moved international audiences and continues to touch people to this day. For almost 25 years, from 1981 to 2005, Luther Vandross dominated the American R&B music charts like no other artist before or since. In that span he released eight #1 R&B albums, seven #1 R&B singles and another five Top 20 R&B singles. He achieved crossover status with eight Billboard Top 10 albums, including reaching #1 with 2003's Dance With My Father; and another five Top 10 Billboard Hot 100 singles.
He definitely deserves to be inducted into The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame
How could anyone not love this man? Miss him so much.
Love him! He is the greatest!!!
It's called jealousy!
Miss and love him so much! xo
Everyone loves Luther 😘
Simply the best male vocalist
Me too.......
Luther had the best backup singers in the entire history of the music business. He knew how to pick them...I mean just listen to them, and Lisa Fischer hitting that high note. Yes!!!
Yeah Lisa is so underrated!
Great Singer with a magnificent Voice
I say the same thing to everyone willing to listen! They are incredible!
Lisa is probably the best backing singer of all time - Luther/Rolling Stones/Tina Turner and many more. What a class act!
Yes they are great but you can still hear him over them because he is so powerful!
I love his background singers. They are spark and right on point. Amazing singers.
Luther began as a backup singer himself. He knew what to look for and picked them well!!! Luther❤❤❤ RIP
The dislikes must be disliking themselves.. This live version sounds even better than the record..
It’s rare for many artists to sound like their records and he’s pulls it off beautifully. Nice!
Luther’s voice is so smooth and his singing is just effortless. Pure legend.
His concerts were an experience. Pure class! I remember the first time I saw him, I was in shock through most of the show. Couple of years later I attended with someone else who was attending for the first time and got to watch them experience that same feeling of awe. RIP Luther. Love you. Miss you.
This is a masterclass of showmanship and pure vocal talent
What a wonderful entertainer he was! And a voice to melt the heart! Was infatuated before, and I get emotional just listening to him....and I am in my 70s. Always loved me some Luther!! Rest in peace and sing with the angels, dear Luther!!❤
There will never be another like you, Luther. I miss you so much😢
This man was such a genius!
He was amazing with the best back up singers on earth.
Without question bro
Luther always interacted with his backing vocalists. I think he always wanted to make sure they felt respected as he was a backing vocalist himself for many years. For David Bowie and Change.
Luther was not a backing vocalist for Change, he was the featured lead vocalist on 'Searching' and the 'Glow Of Love'.
ventende Lisa Fischer, the bg vocalist he was being playful with said he encouraged her to pursue her solo career
And her relationship with Aretha Franklin how its started coz I was under the impression that he did backing vocals for her at some point
Luther sang background for everyone. Can hear him on Chaka Khan's Papillon as well. Imagine having that talent backing you up!
Mary J Blige, Everyone Knows The Queen Is Me MJB that part
Love how Luther starts off his vocals in the right key (to a tee) when he sings: "What's there to say, there's not much to talk about" before the music kicks back in. One of the best vocalists of all time by far! A one-off! 🎤
Absolutely, it's like watching a master painter ma kg e a sketch!
Agree
Timing impeccable
Luther Vandross was the BEST male vocalist there has ever been. One other man can compete with his voice. And Karen carpenter was the best female vocalist. Hands down.
Honey voice. By far one of the best vocalist who ever lived
He was so fantastic, classy, wonderful. Sorely missed.
Luther was in his prime here, totally uplifting in “Little Miracles “ and in his element in “Take You Out” . He can never be replaced. RIP, dear Luther. 🎤🎼🎶
Luther was the bomb 💣 he looked good no matter his weight!
It was all in that anointed velvety voice! 🤗💕 I am so sorry 👈🏾I never got a chance to see him perform live.
Awww Luther looked so proud of Lisa Fischer when she hit that high note
I’ve been to A LOT of concerts and I have to say his were the very best of any I’ve seen. Just beautiful visually, singing on point , actually cried at one of his concerts. A lot of emotions...miss him still and always💔💔🙏🏽
Classy! Luther always sounded as good in concert as he did on the recording.
Constance Escobar yeah that's why I love his live records!!!
Wow! My favourite singer of all time. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to watch him perform live. His live performances were as good as his studio recordings. So long, Luther!
There's no denying that lisa was his favorite! After she hit that high note @4:30-4:38 she was looking at him like "did I do good daddy?" And he gave his nod of approval like yes baby, it was perfect
Damn that man could sing! R.I.P.
@Claudia Vlahović where the hell you been?
HE IS BY FAR THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME JUST LOVE HIM

@@younggod3906 I was brought up on Luther's music playing on repeat.
I had a tough experience as a kid and this guys voice used to make me chill out and feel comfort.
I'm a 35 year old man now with 2 kids of my own & still his music brings back memories of being a kid and blocking stuff out with his tunes on full blast.
Crazy to think luther recorded his tunes in the USA and there was this scrawny 8 year old kid in manchester uk playing his tunes in his room loud enough to block out the shouting.
HE HAD AN AMAZING HIGH RANGE !!!
They should have hired you to introduce him at his concerts, when he was alive! I felt that!!!
This is everything!! I love him too!!
His shows were second to none. Entertainment at its best.
Love you Luther wish you were still with us saw you at Wembley so handsome a Princex
The Two Minute Holler facts
I was just thinking I wish there was performances and concerts like this now! ✌
Had the pleasure of seeing luther in concert on six occasions the man is a Legend simply the very best
I was luck to have seen him three times in concert, the man was a performer with the greatest voice I have ever heard, so many great times.
Lucky to see him and Anita I was
You cannot be born called Luther Vandross without being a fantastic singer....the name was meant to be on the cover of best sellers.
Music that not coming back. Pure gold
Those outfits dayummmm classy
Best harmonies around.. The full Luther experience was like no other.
hello from a french in Paris 15é, excuse my poor american.
The words are enough.
Bravo Bravo Bravo LV
Music is (Luther is...) Universal!
Miss those days, I was in my 30's.. Life was much more simpler, and enjoyable and so was love, alot more simple
My Dad saw him live and said he was very warm and had good humor. He interacted well with his audience.
I remember seeing Luther at Manchester Apollo back in the 80's and him opening up with this song. Someone threw a towel on his head whilst he was in mid song and he nearly walked. Luckily he resumed and gave a faultless performance.
I'm now 54 and seen countless artists in venues large and small. However no other singer or band has ever been his equal and probably never will. I feel very fortunate to have experienced such an amazing concert. RIP Luther
I agree, he was fantasic! I travelled to Birmingham for him! ❤️️
I LOVE THE GOOD VIBE HE HAD WITH HIS BACK UP SINGERS, ESPECIALLY LISA FISCHER!!!
The vocals are divine!
I just got shivers!! So powerful and magical!! There will never be another Luther V! Rest in heaven sweet angel!!
I miss his voice so much
Luther Just Gave it Us to ! That don’t happen any more the Glamorous , The Costumes , Singing , no Stage Trickery . One Of the Best 🎉❤! Love you Luther !
I was lucky to have seen Luther Vandross twice. I have to say both times were the best concerts I’ve seen. The production, the singers, the musicians all came together and made it a night to remember. We all miss you, and have cherished memories to last a life time. Thank you!
My childhood right here!!!! Thank you Luther ❤❤❤❤

Girl my mom loved Luther too. Everytime his songs came on she would scream "Luttthhherrr" like she was at a live concert. Lol. Lovely memories 💖
I love him live better than I love his recordings 😭❤️
His voice was just effortless. He could have sang lying down - A lost genius.
I feel like his was his happiest concert. He was so playful.

This is the true definition of perfection. The band! The backup singers including Lisa Fischer! And last but not least Mr. Luther Vandross 🙌🏾
